Yes, that's the point. Video is staring to work now in CVS, but of
course requires more debugging of everything else required. So it seems
that since this is a often requested feature, and about the only one
anybody seems to really care about, completing this debugging process
and then doing a new Gnash release makes the most sense. Doing one now
would be a huge distraction.
It's entirely likely that once video is really "working", we'll spend
some additional time tweaking the performance, so I wouldn't expect this
to be completed in the next week. :-)
